The Long Beach State softball team ended its final road trip with a straight sweep of Cal Poly over the weekend in San Luis Obispo.
The 49ers (25-24, 12-6 Big West) took the series from the Mustangs (22-30, 5-13) Saturday in a double header, with sophomore pitcher Christina Clermont pitching 11 total innings to help LBSU take the win.
Clermont allowed only five hits over her 11 innings pitched Saturday afternoon, after relieving senior Christian Carbajal in the sixth inning of the second game.
LBSU took the first game of the double header 2-1 with a home-run from
freshman infielder LT Torres to drive in the game winning runs.
The second game of the day went into extra innings, with freshman infielder Lauren Macleod scoring the go-ahead run for the 49ers in the top of the ninth.
On Sunday afternoon, the 49ers took an early lead over the Mustangs when freshman outfielder Hannah Cookson crushed her first home run to give LBSU a 2-0 lead in the second. Cookson totaled three hits with two runs batted in to lift the 49ers to an 8-3 win.
LBSU will finish its season at home against UC Santa Barbara in a three-game series starting on Friday.
